Resumen
Descripción
Eradicating poverty, ending hunger, and taking urgent action to combat climate change and its impacts are three objectives the global community has committed to achieving by 2030 by adopting the SDGs. Agriculture has been used as an important instrument in eradicating hunger, poverty, and all forms of malnutrition. Climate change however is expected to act as an effective barrier to agricultural growth in many regions, especially in developing country contexts heavily dependent on rain-fed agric ulture. These interlinked challenges call for a Climate Smart Agriculture (CSA) approach which aims at sustainably increasing productivity, building resilience of agricultural and food systems to climate change, and reducing greenhouse emissions where possible.
